Multi-scale study of the microstructure of PM HIP compacts and an analogous product manufactured using traditional technologies has been performed by metallography, SEM, TEM, EDX, and OIM. The influence of vacuum heat treatment and temperature consolidation of HIP in the regions of (α+β) and β phases on the regularities of the structure formation of PM HIP compacts of the heat-resistant titanium-based alloy has been revealed. Features of microstructures such as lamellar, bimodal microstructure and grains have been detected and studied in detail in PM HIP compacts and in a product obtained by traditional technology. The extreme behavior of the partition ratio <i>k</i><sub>d</sub> of alloying elements between the α and β phases in the product obtained using traditional technology, in comparison with PM HIP compacts, has been discovered and studied in detail. Analysis of the obtained result, in comparison with the results of a comparative study of the structure and properties of PM HIP compacts obtained using rapidly quenched PREP powders and products obtained using traditional technology from stainless steels and Ni based superalloys, has allowed the following important conclusion. The cooling rate during solidification is the dominant factor in the formation of the final structural-phase state (composition of α and β phases in the Ti alloy) and, therefore, is a key hereditary technological parameter that determines the structural-phase state and the increased level of mechanical properties of PM HIP compacts compared to the product obtained using traditional technology.</p>","PeriodicalId":728,"journal":{"name":"Physics of Atomic Nuclei","volume":"87 12","pages":"1777 - 1788"},"PeriodicalIF":0.3,"publicationDate":"2025-03-05","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143554119","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"物理与天体物理","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

For example, the xMAP technology of the American company Luminex employs polystyrene microspheres labeled with two or three organic fluorophores at different ratios, each with its unique spectral characteristics. Although xMAP can detect as many as 80 proteins or DNA sequences in a single test system, the need to use special equipment, produced only by the same company, for multiplexed analysis, as well as inherent disadvantages of organic fluorophores (a large Stokes shift and photobleaching under laser excitation) limit the applications of this technology. The objectives of this study were to design and fabricate microspheres encoded with semiconductor quantum dots. Carboxylated melamine-formaldehyde microspheres of three sizes were optically encoded with quantum dots of two colors immobilized between layers of oppositely charged polyelectrolytes on the surface of the microspheres. As a result, six populations of microspheres with different sizes and/or unique optical codes were obtained, characterized by a long-term stability and homogeneity in aqueous solutions. Analysis of the microspheres by the dynamic light scattering, epifluorescence microscopy, and flow cytometry methods showed their suitability for multiplexed analysis. At the same time, the use of quantum dots for optical encoding makes it possible to exclude photodegradation of the signal and to excite all quantum dot populations at the same wavelength of radiation, with effective separation of signals from the microspheres into different channels of a standard flow cytometer.</p>","PeriodicalId":728,"journal":{"name":"Physics of Atomic Nuclei","volume":"87 12","pages":"1918 - 1922"},"PeriodicalIF":0.3,"publicationDate":"2025-03-05","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143553987","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"物理与天体物理","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
